End user Upload a csv file to Power BI Service from Dashboard with a button

[cristianml]

Hi,

I'm looking for the possibility to Upload a csv file to Power BI Service from Dashboard with a button (from CANVAS) and then this to be the dataset for the same Dashboard.

I was thinking using Python within functionalities in PBI service.

Hope you can help me on some ideas or the code for this.

Thanks !

You should be able to do this using Power Automate.

Add a flow button on the canvas of your report. When clicked, the flow should ask for a file to be uploaded as it's required input.

Take the file and put it in a SharePoint Online document library, overwriting the existing file with the same name.

This file should be used as the source of the dataset.

Final step - Refresh the dataset.

I have'nt tried it myself but it should work! In theory.
